Aubergine and tomato

Spiced aubergine and tomatoes

No ratings yet
I borrowed this recipe from my great friend Carlos. He's a very accomplished cook and going for dinner with him is a delight. He served this with a beautifully marinated leg of lamb, I'll get that recipe too at some point.
The spices in here are subtle yet give such a great flavour. You can make it with fresh tomatoes for the best results but tinned also work.
